My rant against TV

On TV
Wonder if we’ll ever wonder
At what wonder sees
If we’d never seen before
We’d wonder what it means

The crowd leaps up onto their feet
We watch it on TV, On TV

Pity that we’re just so bored
With our reality
We borrow someone else’s life
Formatted for your screen

Get up onto your two feet
And see what it all means, On TV

Tell me, Alex, do you know
The answers for yourself
And you there, Mr. Anchorman
You’re smug as f***ing hell
Smug as hell On TV

Out collective consciousness
Is skewered by the press
Will we think like FOX
Or NBC or CBS

Would we like a death-match
Between Bart and Herman Hess, On TV
